摘要： A method of forming a copper interconnect in a dual damascene scheme is described. After a diffusion barrier layer and seed layer are sequentially formed on the sidewalls and bottoms of a trench and via in a dielectric layer, a first copper layer is deposited by a first ECP process at a 10 mA/cm2 current density to fill the via and part of the trench. A first anneal step is performed to remove carbon impurities and optionally includes a H2 plasma treatment. A second ECP process with a first deposition step at a 40 mA/cm2 current density and second deposition step at a 60 mA/cm2 current density is used to deposit a second copper layer that overfills the trench. After a second anneal step, a CMP process planarizes the copper layers. Fewer copper defects, reduced S, Cl, and C impurities, and improved Rc performance are achieved by this method.

摘要： A method for fabricating a dielectric layer provides for use of a carbon source material separate from a halogen source material when forming a carbon and halogen doped silicate glass dielectric layer. The use of separate carbon and halogen source materials provides enhanced process latitude when forming the carbon and halogen doped silicate glass dielectric layer. Such a carbon and halogen doped silicate glass dielectric layer having a dielectric constant greater than about 3.0 is particularly useful as an intrinsic planarizing stop layer within a damascene method. A bilayer dielectric layer construction comprising a carbon and halogen doped silicate glass and a carbon doped silicate glass dielectric layer absent halogen doping is useful within a dual damascene method.
